The imitable Florence + the Machine release a special collaboration recorded for the upcoming video game FINAL FANTASY® XV from Square Enix.
The three tracks, “Too Much Is Never Enough,” “I Will Be” and “Stand By Me,” were recorded in Air Studios in London with producer and composer Emile Haynie (Kanye West, Lana Del Rey). “Too Much…” is a cinematic epic, featuring sweeping strings and Florence’s rich, emotive vocals. “I Will Be” is an evocative ballad, while her take on “Stand By Me” gives the Ben E. King classic a beautiful, melancholy edge.
“I was listening to Classic FM and there was a whole two hour program about classical music in videogames. It was so inspiring and a whole scope of music that I didn’t know about,” Florence says of her decision to get involved in the project. It was really fascinating, the music was incredibly beautiful and emotional and I took it as a sort of sign, to see what I can do in this medium.”

ALL BOY/ALL GIRL PREMIERE WHIMSICAL FIRST TRACK “PASTELS” VIA CLASH
all boy/all girl had its modest beginnings when theatrical vocalist and front woman Danielle Lovier first started playing music with experimental composer and bassist Nicholas Rahn in Philadelphia in 2010.

After touring the US for three months as a duo, they found themselves living in New York City, writing and recording an EP of contemporary-classical-leaning pop songs.
When done honestly, rock ‘n’ roll can stick with you for a lifetime. It rides shotgun for the whole way, soundtracking those big moments and memories. Once you hear a Citizen Zero song, you remember it.

Striking a balance between edgy grunge attitude a la Stone Temple Pilots and bluesy alternative expanse reminiscent of Kings of Leon, their knack for a hook immediately resonated with a growing national fan base.
